DYNAMICS OF SURFACTANTS IN LUBRICATING OILS
In a recent series of successful experiments at PSI and ISIS we were able to demonstrate the possibility of measuring the rate of transfer of a small molecule (allyl alcohol)... -
Muon Level Crossing Resonance Studies of Anion-exchange Membranes Under Diffe...
Anion-exchange membranes are used in alkaline fuel cells, a technology which allows for the production of power from hydrogen in impure gas streams. Very little is known about... -
Electron Spin Relaxation Measurements of P3HS
Using muon spin relaxation and ALC resonance spectroscopy the electron spin relaxation and mobility of the polymer P3HS will be measured as a function of temperature. The... -
Silicon nanoparticles in thermoelectric material applications - Solution stat...
In order to meet the UK's commitment to reduce 80% of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, it is necessary make major advances in efficient, clean and secure energy conversion and... -
Probing the [FeFe]-hydrogenase using muon spectroscopy
During our previous experiment on HiFi (RB1320541) we measured the ALC spectrum of the Fe2(µ-pdt)(CO)4(PMe3)2 model hydrogenase complex over multiple temperatures. The spectra... -
Temperature and environment dependence of the isotope effect in muonated radi...
We plan to measure the hyperfine constants for both the muon and the equivalent hydrogen atom in a small muonated radical using time-differential ALC. We will follow this as a... -
A GENERAL METHOD OF MEASURING ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY
Antioxidants are very important molecules because they can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our bodies. When our bodies use oxygen, free radicals are released which...
